yea not bad an idea :) well let see some more ideas and then we will decide

I dunno I wan thinking maybe something abstract

IceBlu
18-06-2003, 06:41:PM
not a Soccer club badge (N) ...we had one similar to that a while ago. (SGF badge)

i can't think of anything else right now but i'll try to...

18-06-2003, 07:28:PM
it's really stupid, everyone always wants one and then they either don't participate at all, or submit a 2-minute effort....

PhiLLer
18-06-2003, 07:33:PM
I have an idea. We could have a competition to design a template for a (fictional) web site. No coding, just the template design on a 800x600 image. You can submit as many as you like.
The theme of the page should be: Funky, Fresh, Summer...that kinda theme

To make it even more interesting the members who want to join this competition would have to put their name down (so we get a good view of who's participating) and then we could have something like 1st round, winners of each match go through to round 2, then quarter finals, then semi finals and then the final were the 2 best templates battle it out for votes (if we have enough people willing to join that is).

What do you think?

Gerrard 17
18-06-2003, 07:43:PM
Sounds good to me, but there will be like 6 people that will join in (:/)

PhiLLer
18-06-2003, 07:45:PM
I got another idea:D
We could have a competition to design a promo poster for a fictional game

Or we could design a poster for an upcoming (fictional - coz then you'll have to think of a name and theme and that's more creative:p ) movie


I'm full of ideas:)

Ebonix
18-06-2003, 07:46:PM
I like the idea!

Its better than a Soccer Badge :D

Julianinho
18-06-2003, 08:11:PM
Yeah, that idea is cool...:)

I'd join...

::..Federico Debla..::
18-06-2003, 08:44:PM
I'd join to the Template idea, I liked it and since I've done lots of Webs I think I wouldn't have so much problems doing one for a competition.....

See ya!

Budge

yeah movie poster one is my choice, although game one wouldnt be too bad either....

PhiLLer
19-06-2003, 01:33:PM
Movie/Game poster seems to be the most popular idea, we'll just need someone to confirm it now...

flamehawk
19-06-2003, 01:55:PM
Ok than, I think we are gonna go with the game poster idea.

flamehawk
20-06-2003, 04:00:PM

It's only possible to submit 1, if that's what you mean....

I think Ice means from an external source, like a picture of a boat or something :S

flamehawk
21-06-2003, 10:50:PM
Arrrghhh damnit I was half way through with the image and then I forgot to save :f***: :f***: :f***:

exactly.

like....people could just import a bunch of manga pics and make a dragonballZ game or something..so there should be a limit i feel.

like 3 images of so...

I agree with the 3 images

I hope that wasn't a dig at me with the Dragonball Z pics :D:p ;)

PhiLLer
22-06-2003, 12:45:AM
Oh, right. Well I dont think there should be any limit. Coz if you're gonna stick a whole bunch of DBZ pics onto a background it will look cheap and cheesy anyway so you have to choose your selection wisely:D

Gerrard 17
22-06-2003, 01:37:AM
I agree... There shouldn't be a limit coz no one is gonna 3d model the characters from the game or whatever.

PhiLLer
22-06-2003, 02:03:AM
When and how can we start submiting the stuff, Kader?

Gerrard 17
22-06-2003, 02:06:AM
The submission should be open only for like 2 days, to avoid copying ideas from other people. So lets wait and see how many people will participate, and then everyone can start submitting... next weekend?

PhiLLer

Great to see so many people joining in, should be a good competition!

I got a question. Since these are game promo posters we are designing here, should (or can) we include quotes from gaming mags/web site saying how good the game is etc. You know the same stuff you see on some movie promo posters?

flamehawk
22-06-2003, 05:12:PM
I guess so, why not?

rony31
22-06-2003, 06:39:PM
can we make up the quotes? :p

PhiLLer

You're hardly gonna find real quotes for a fictional game, are you. Smartass:D

rony31
22-06-2003, 07:57:PM
I was thinking maybe making a cover for a future game... like I might try a Metal Gear Solid 3 cover... dont know if there's gonna be a MGS3 though :crazyboy:

Even then you'll have to make up quotes:D
And yes, there will be an MGS3 (they had a preview of it at E3)

flamehawk
23-06-2003, 10:59:AM
but guys, try to be alittle more original :kader:

PhiLLer
23-06-2003, 12:53:PM
Yeh, Rony since you wanted to make a MGS3 cover. You have to make a cover for a fictional game. A sequel to an existig game isn't allowed either, remember that.:)

vincenzo

PhiLLer
24-06-2003, 09:03:PM
Sued? no lol. Unless you are gonna print yer poster and hang it all around to town to promote your game...then you might get sued.:D
Just take some photos, create some effects...be creative:)
